THE INTERVIEW AND THE LETTER. The lieartles rb-l distributed her smiles among her three admirers with the utmost impartiality, now encour aging and now repulsing as fancy dic tated or policy seemed to require". At the usual places of amusement, the theatre, the Clitf llou-e. Woodward's Gardens, etc.,. she was almost daily, seen with one or the other of her dupe?, each of whom fancied that she was devoted to him alone. The young law student, being of very smyeplibfe excitable temperament, first brought matters; to a crisis, so far at least as he was concerned. Surprising her alone one day in the parlor, he seized her hand, and maddened by the coldness with w hich she received him. declared his love and rt fused to allow her to leave the room without; giving him a decisive answer. S Wearied with bis importunities and a little . startled at the wiidness of his ''demeanor, she coldly told him that she had not the slightest love for him and that, her heart was given to another. .When he 1 lean I these words from the lips of one w ho had previously done everything that could be done, without actually committing herself, to convince him that his passion was returned, he re proached lvr with, her perfidy in the most bitter terms. . , i .' - . o HALF FRIGHTENED, She fled, from the.-room dropping in her haste the letter she hail been read ing when he entered- the apartment. Acting under the unaccountable im pulse of jealousy, he picked 'it up, open ed and read it.

At a. recent meeting in Ed inburgh of the British Association of Science a paper was read by Mr. Thom as Carr upon a new mill for grinding wheat. It is described as reducing wiieat by pereussion, while it is iu i upported ami being projected through the air. ,heii tiie wheat passes through the machine it is strucki by ti series of bars, moving very swiftly and in opiw.site d liections.

Au Edinburgh firm has one of these dis integrating flour-mills in full opera tion, and the advantages in its favor over the millstones it suitersedes are pointed out by Mr. Carrs paper. , It rarley needs repairing in e'onipiirison with the other millstones ; requires fewer men, and thus 'saves in wages; is free front loss iu scorching, and thus Saves fire iiLsuranee ; oicupieij less space, and requires less driving power; and, in addition to this protluoes a superior quality of llour. . ,..vj ,. 1 . : How SiHAH as Maih:.

Mother used 0 to make codec so and so ; ami mother used to have such waffles; and mother knew just how thick or thin t;o make a . sqiiiish pie ; and O, if could only taste of mother's biscuit !

The experience of a contrite husband who publishes bis confession in the Utica, tN. Y.) IL-ralO, is good reading for those men whose daily .sauce is, how mother did it." Ho says : ' "I found fault some time ago with Maria Ann's custard pie, and" tried to tell her how my mother baked custanl pie. Maria made the pie after my recipe. 1 1 lasted longer than any pie we ever had. Maria sat it on the ta ble every day for dinner, and you see I could not eat it Ix-eause I forgot to tell her to put in any eggs or shorten ing. It was economical, but in a fit of generosity I stole ft from the pantry and gave it to a poor little boy in the neighborhood. The boy's funeral was largely attended by his" former play mates. I did not go myself. "Then there was the buckwheat cakes. I told Maria Ann any fool could beat her making those cakes, and she said I had better try it. So I did. I emptied the batter all out of the pitcher one evening and pet the cakes myself. I got the Hour and the salt and water, and warned i by the past, put in a liberal quau- tity of eggs and shortening.

In the morning I got up early and prepared to enjoy my triumph ; but I didn't. That veaCt was strong enough to raise the dead, and the batter was running all over the carpet. I scraped it up and put it into another dish. 'J heu I got a fire in the kitchen and put on the griddle. The first let of caks stuck to the griddle. The second dittoed, only more so. Jlana came down and asked What was burning, the advised ine to grease the griddle. I did it. One end of the griddle got too hot and I dropped the thing on' my teiiderest corn, while trying to turn it around. Finally. the cakes were peady for breakfast, and .Maria got the other things ready. We sat down. dy cakes did not have exactly the right l!avor. I took one mouthful audit fatUtied me. I lost my appetite at once. 3Iaria would not let me put one on her plate.
